In their 25th year of bringing The Nutcracker to life, the Santa Clarita Ballet Company once again serves as a highlight of the holiday season with this enchanting ballet. Fans of this timeless story of Marie and her beloved Nutcracker are invited to experience a magical adventure that begins at an elegant Christmas party where gifts are exchanged, guests dance and children marvel at the wonder and surprises before them. As if a dream, the story journeys into the festive Land of Sweets, but not before an exciting battle between toy soldiers and the formidable Rat King.
Boasting nearly 150 performers and hosting professional guest artists, "The Nutcracker" is an essential component in fulfilling Santa Clarita Ballet's dual missions: presenting affordable, high-quality ballet performances to the community while providing a dance training ground for the littlest mouse or an accomplished, career-bound Sugar Plum Fairy.
